"The king showed amazing dominance under the basket. After Howard was knocked away, he was unable to jump in time to block the shot." Yang Yi shouted in the live broadcast booth.
"Is the Mosaic team going to be double-teamed?" Zhang Lili asked.
"It's not that bad, the game has just started, and Harden's current condition looks good." Yang Yi smiled.
As the two men explained, the Mosaic team had already completed a fast break.
When Wang Zelin dunked, the Mosaic players on the outside had already turned around, and Howard also immediately picked up the ball and served quickly.
Wang Zelin wanted to stop his rapid attack, but unfortunately he was a step too late.
Harden took a step away from Lillard with his body, took two steps forward after receiving the ball, and immediately made a long pass when he saw Brewer, the "Company Commander" in the frontcourt, running out of an open space.
Brewer, who is always getting stronger, caught the ball and changed direction, holding the ball and hitting the basket.
The Blazers' drive south was unguarded at this time, and with a bang, it was blown away by Brewer.
4:4 tie!
"Lamarcus, follow your men!"
Coach Terry shouted to Aldridge from the sidelines.
At this time, Lillard advanced to the frontcourt and passed the ball directly in.
Howard learned his lesson and went around to steal the ball, but Wang Zelin held him to the side with an arm and couldn't rush out.
Wang Zelin grabbed the ball with one hand and leaned against Howard. With a bang, Howard backed away, and then...
"boom--!"
Violent noises spread all around, and the Mosaic team's basket was exploded again.
"At the basket, no one can guard Zelin alone, not even Warcraft!" Zhang Lili said.
"Barton, keep an eye on him!"
Wang Zelin landed, immediately pointed at Harden and shouted sternly.
Barton tried his best, using his hands and feet together, plus verbal attacks, to tightly entangle Harden.
Restricting Harden also limits the Mosaic team's starting points for outside attacks.
Howard failed to make a quick start at the first opportunity, which gave Wang Zelin time to return to defense, and he quickly ran back to the backcourt.
Seeing that the fast break could not be played, Mosaic's new coach** Bickerstaff stood up and shouted: "Don't worry, the success rate is high!"
After receiving the ball, Ty Lawson advanced unhurriedly while observing the situation in the frontcourt.
The Trail Blazers' defensive position was very strict, and his teammates had no chance. He quickly advanced to the left three-point line, and with the help of Ariza's off-ball screen, he suddenly made a pull-up jumper and hit a three-pointer.
7:6, Mosaic leads by 1 point.
Lillard's defense was a little careless on this ball, but he can't be entirely blamed. No one expected Ty Lawson to take such a decisive shot.
After joining the Mosaic team this summer, everyone thought that Space City finally welcomed the third giant. However, Ty Lawson's performance was shocking.
Not only did this guy's on-court performance drop off a cliff compared to his days with the Nuggets, he was also accompanied by a lot of messy off-court problems, which made the Mosaic management so regretful that their intestines were almost green.
So far this season, Ty Lawson has only averaged 6 points, 3.8 assists and 1.5 rebounds per game, shooting only 38.7% from the field and 33.3% from three-point range. All statistics have reached career lows.
The moment Ty Lawson hit, not only Harden and others on the court were shocked, but Bickerstaff and other Mosaic players on the sidelines almost jumped up and cursed.
Fortunately, the goal was scored!
Offense and defense transition, the Blazers attack.
Different from the Mosaic team's game rhythm, the Trail Blazers chose to play fast break. Lillard quickly pushed forward, and other teammates were like four arrows, approaching the Mosaic team's half at the same time.
"Brewer, double-team him!"
This time, the Mosaic coach shouted loudly from the sidelines.
He originally didn't want to be double-teamed so soon, but after seeing Wang Zelin's terrifying energy on the offensive end at the basket, he knew that he could no longer let Wang Zelin play like this.
Let that No. 36 really shine, he can really defeat a team by himself!
However, facing Brewer was Aldridge, who was in the left corner. The former wanted to double-team the basket, but it was too late.
Lillard once again lobbed the ball to Wang Zelin. Wang Zelin half-turned after receiving the ball, pressing Howard with his left hand and holding the ball with his right hand.
This time Howard gritted his teeth and knocked away Wang Zelin, aiming for the right moment to jump to block the shot, but the next second he was extremely desperate.
Because the shooting point of the sky hook is too high, it is simply not something that humans can cover.
"Uh-huh!"
Wang Zelin pressed Howard's right arm, took the shot smoothly, and the basketball went hollow into the net.
"Beep!"
The referee blew the whistle, Howard's thug fouled, and Wang Zelin added a free throw.
"Give up. With your strength, you still want to help me?"
After landing, Wang Zelin spat at Howard.
Howard's face was full of anger, and his teeth were about to break.
"Uh-huh!"
Wang Zelin made a free throw.
9:7, the Trail Blazers lead at home!
"Oh! Wang is so incomprehensible on the offensive end. He alone has taken all the points scored by the Trail Blazers. No one on the Mosaic team can restrain him at all!"
In the TNT studio, O'Neal roared with excitement.
"In less than three minutes of the opening, he scored 9 points on 4 of 4 shots and 1 free throw. Is he planning to break the single-game scoring record this season?"
Miller made a surprising conjecture.
"I don't rule out this possibility. I remember Wang's highest score in a single game this season. It seems to be..."
"It was the 60 points we scored against the Warriors before!"
Before Barkley could think about it for too long, his good partner Kenny Smith spoke up to help him clear up his doubts.
"Yes, it's 60 points!"
Barkley nodded and suddenly asked: "How about we all take a guess, how many points can Wang score tonight under the defense of Masekli?"
Good guy, are you betting so big?
"I guess at least 50 points!"
O'Neal was the first to give the answer.
"50 points is too little. You are still known as the number one Wang Mi. I guess 55 points!" Miller sneered.
"Then I will give you a little more, 58 points!" Kenny Smith smiled and gave a larger number.
Good guy, this is such a big deal from the beginning, how can I take it?
Barkley couldn't help but chuckle, but he also knew that he must not give in at this time. If he gave in, the damn fat man would definitely laugh at him the whole time.
He pondered for a while, raised his head to meet the man's gaze, and gritted his teeth and gave an answer of "60 points."
hiss!
×3
O'Neal, Miller, and Smith were all shocked by Barkley's answer and couldn't help but take a breath.
Then, Barkley proposed another bet: "Let's just say it. After the game is over, let's see who among us guesses has the biggest difference from Wang's actual score. The one with the biggest difference will be responsible for tonight's supper." , what do you think?"
"I'm OK!"
O'Neill shrugged indifferently.
"Hehe, you can have sex for free again." Kenny Smith responded.
"Charles, you'd better pray that the Mosaic team can be stronger now. If the Trail Blazers defeat the game in three quarters, then your probability of losing will be greater than ours."
Miller suddenly looked at Buckley and laughed sinisterly.
Buckley was startled and thought for a moment, it was true.
The right way is not to be afraid of ten thousand, but to be afraid of the worst.
He now regrets why he gave such a big number. He only hopes that the Mosaic team can be stronger in the future and support it for a while longer so as not to collapse so quickly.
As for the possibility of the Mosaic team making a comeback?
Stop it, no one thinks they can win!
